Why are the broadcasts so late? I'll try to work back from the broadcast start time and you might get part of the answer.
12.30 am - Broadcast time
21.30 - File is uploaded/downloaded to the TV station server for ingestion, preferably not less than 3 hours before transmission
20.30 - Start of upload. Let's say file is 20GB and average upload speed is 10MB/s. Estimated upload time 35 minutes.
19.30 - Start of exporting the TV programme
18.37 - First car enters the evening service
17.35 - Start of the last stage
I haven't watched the programme yet and I do not know the exact workflow of the ERC TV programme production, so all the values are just estimations. But you can see that there really isn't much time between the beginning of video export and the start of the last stage.
Today the last service is in 2,5 hours earlier than yesterday and also the TV guide shows the Eurosport event review programme is 2 hours earlier than yesterday.Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

I think 'No one cares about rallying in France' still means there's a lot more interest there than in a lot of other countries.

Reading these comments it seems as if nobody cares about rallying anywhere (apart from maybe Finland and Czech Republic)

Maybe we must question, what's wrong with rallying not being the most popular sport, and not most covered in newspaper? Also, could events (especially WRC ones) still handle much more spectators and keep it safe at the same time? Remember what happened in the 80s when rallying became too popular... Times have changed but I think the same still applies. In crowded events we can see it's often impossible to maintain the safety for spectators... Anyway I think rallying as a sport is too complex to be appealing to the general public. Rallying has a relatively small but very dedicated audience, there aren't so many sport disciplines that make so many people travel to see it live (be it inside a country or around the world).

Precisely that should be the job of the promotor. The promotor should be doing everything to get the ERC in the various medias.
But okay, that would require a lot of work and the benefits only appear in a long time. Apparently that is not in Eurosports mind at the moment...

Sorry, but I think this is a ridiculous statement. Rallying exists solely because of spectator interest. On the one hand because the sport is heavily financed by sponsors and on the other hand because city councils only allow permits for rallies because of the public interest. I do not think many rallies would continue if spectators were banned.
